Lyrics

0:26You were young

0:28But your eyes were younger still when you found me there

0:35And you rode down the street to watch me work

0:41Building tables and chairs

0:48You wore white

0:50We were married in July

0:53In a church on a hill

0:57And I cried

1:00'Cos you looked just like the winter

1:03Dressed in the light

1:07Where do I go

1:08What do I know now

1:12With my sweet love gone

1:15With my sweet love gone

1:22With my hands

1:25Oh I worked the night and day

1:28And I built you a home

1:31And we raised our own children in those walls

1:37Now they're happy and gone

1:44And our yard it was colourful with flowers

1:50That scented the air

1:54And I watched as they slowly died away

1:59When you needed me there

2:04Who do I be

2:05What do I see now

2:09With my sweet love gone

2:11With my sweet love gone

2:42You grew old so much faster than I could

2:47And I knew you would go

2:51Laid to rest on a Sunday afternoon

2:57And you left me alone

3:01How do I live

3:02What do I give now

3:06With my sweet love gone

3:09With my sweet love gone

You were young
But your eyes were younger still when you found me there
And you rode down the street to watch me work
Building tables and chairs
You wore white
We were married in July
In a church on a hill
And I cried
'Cos you looked just like the winter
Dressed in the light
Where do I go
What do I know now
With my sweet love gone
With my sweet love gone
With my hands
Oh I worked the night and day
And I built you a home
And we raised our own children in those walls
Now they're happy and gone
And our yard it was colourful with flowers
That scented the air
And I watched as they slowly died away
When you needed me there
Who do I be
What do I see now
With my sweet love gone
With my sweet love gone
You grew old so much faster than I could
And I knew you would go
Laid to rest on a Sunday afternoon
And you left me alone
How do I live
What do I give now
With my sweet love gone
With my sweet love gone
